MY REVIEW

Most of the time, when I read YA books, they have vampires, werewolves, or zombies. This is different. There be aliens.

The author gives us a genuine highschool girl in Sloane. She’s bull-headed, snarky, and full-figured.

Now, Hayden is the whole package. He’s built like a jock with a physique that’s drool worthy, and a rep as a bad boy. But he’s got a sweet, gentle side for Sloane.

When these two get together, it heats up pretty quick. And Sloane has some competition.

Being a fan of character driven stories, I really enjoyed the ‘getting to know you’ stage with Sloane and Hayden. And Sloane’s competition is the perfect foil to stir things up.

While writing a paper about Hayden for the school newspaper, Sloane discovers his secret. These two will have to learn to trust each other if they are to overcome the odds and have a happily ever after.

But you  won’t know when you reach the end. Can I get a ‘cliffhanger!’ It’s a doozy and shocked me. I wasn’t expecting it to end where it did.

If you’re a fan of YA paranormal romance, I highly recommend you give this a try. It’s a great tease for the series, and you’ll probably be like me. Left wanting more!

VOLUME ONE: Starlight Saga

Is a star-crossed romance worth sacrificing your own life?

High school senior Sloane Masterson lives a quiet existence. She has awesome friends, gets excellent grades, and writes a column for the Haven Gazette. But her life goes from dullsville to bizarro when she witnesses mysterious loner Hayden Lancaster performing some freaky superhuman feats.

Like any good journalist, Sloane sets out to uncover the truth, and she’s not above stalking. But one look into Hayden’s remarkable eyes, and she’s crushing hard.

Even at the swoonworthy hunk’s insistence that hanging out with girls like Sloane is “off limits” by his strange family, she can’t resist him or wanting to solve the mystery.

Things get really complicated when a beautiful alien sets her sights on Hayden—and this devious girl’s not looking for a green card!

Now Sloane’s dealing with creepy government agents, über snobby extraterrestrials, and getting a crash course on the rules of interstellar dating. As their diverse worlds collide and the romantic sparks fly, Sloane must decide if Hayden’s secrets are worth risking her life to protect.
